What will I learn?

This fully packed weekend programme offers a practical understanding of how leaders can bring about change for the benefit of those around them. It introduces key frameworks for transformational leadership including:

• A simple model of a human being and how we operate
• Leadership styles, and the importance of matching the style to the needs of the moment
• The 3 most important leadership skills:
• 1. Awareness – how to increase awareness of yourself and those around you
  2. Dialogue – the ability to create real dialogue in difficult situations
  3. Personal mastery – how to manage your thoughts and emotions

The programme is based around a combination of tuition, practical exercises, dialogue and personal reflection. This approach is designed to give participants the maximum opportunity to understand the programme material through their own experience. Participants are encouraged to undertake self-examination to identify their own leadership development needs, using the programme as a guide.
